They are often nonfunctional (&gt;90%) and rarely in the functional form. This paper discusses a case of severe hypercalcemia (23\u2009mg\/dL) secondary to a rare functional parathyroid cyst. The patient was later found to have a hemorrhagic cyst with compression of the right recurrent laryngeal nerve. Preoperative diagnosis of the lesion was parathyroid carcinoma. However, reexploration of the parathyroid mass along with microscopic study confirmed the diagnosis of a parathyroid cyst. Following cystectomy, the patient restored her baseline functional status with preservation of the right recurrent laryngeal nerve. Postoperative followup three years later showed no evidence of cyst recurrence. This paper illustrates the rare presentation of parathyroid functional cysts with severe hypercalcemia and primary hyperparathyroidism. Physicians should be aware of the presence of hemorrhage, inflammation, and compressive symptoms in these cysts which mimic parathyroid carcinoma. These patients should be managed with aggressive medical and surgical intervention.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2012\/851941","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,2,15]],"date-time":"2012-02-15T16:02:40Z","timestamp":1329321760000},"page":"1-5","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Functional Parathyroid Cyst: A Rare Cause of Malignant Hypercalcemia with Primary Hyperparathyroidism\u2014A Case Report and Review of the Literature"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2012","author":[{"given":"Areej","family":"Khan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Brookdale University Hospital and Medical Center, Brooklyn, NY 11212, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yusra","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bronx Lebanon Hospital, New York, NY 10457, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shahzad","family":"Raza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Brookdale University Hospital and Medical Center, Brooklyn, NY 11212, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ghulam","family":"Akbar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"McMaster University, Hamilton, ON, Canada L8N 3Z5"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Monis","family":"Khan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Raritan Bay Medical Center, New Jersey, NJ 08857, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nauman","family":"Diwan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of R-Endocrinology, Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Robertwood Johnson University of Medicine and Dentistry (UMDNJ), Hamilton, NJ 08690, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wajih","family":"Rizvi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of R-Endocrinology, Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Robertwood Johnson University of Medicine and Dentistry (UMDNJ), Hamilton, NJ 08690, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"98","reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"1","first-page":"161","volume":"24","year":"2004","journal-title":"Acta Otorhinolaryngologica Italica"},{"key":"2","first-page":"394","volume":"5","year":"1905","journal-title":"Annales de la Societe Belge de Chirurgie"},{"issue":"4","key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"473","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9610(82)90198-2","volume":"143","year":"1982","journal-title":"American Journal of Surgery"},{"issue":"9","key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1576","DOI":"10.1097\/00005537-200109000-00015","volume":"111","year":"2001","journal-title":"Laryngoscope"},{"issue":"2","key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"147","DOI":"10.1258\/0022215001904923","volume":"114","year":"2000","journal-title":"Journal of Laryngology and Otology"},{"issue":"1","key":"6","first-page":"151","volume":"34","year":"1953","journal-title":"Surgery"},{"key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0039-6060(96)80086-9"},{"issue":"2","key":"8","first-page":"118","volume":"170","year":"1999","journal-title":"Western Journal of Medicine"},{"issue":"1","key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"79","DOI":"10.1016\/S0025-7125(16)30085-2","volume":"79","year":"1995","journal-title":"Medical Clinics of North America"},{"key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/hed.20661"},{"key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0003-4975(96)01392-6"}],"container-title":["Case Reports in Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crim\/2012\/851941.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crim\/2012\/851941.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crim\/2012\/851941.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,23]],"date-time":"2019-06-23T15:46:37Z","timestamp":1561304797000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/crim\/2012\/851941\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2012]]},"references-count":11,"alternative-id":["851941","851941"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2012\/851941","relation":{},"ISSN":["1687-9627","1687-9635"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1687-9627","type":"print"},{"value":"1687-9635","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2012]]}}}
